Afu and Dongyi... Dongyi is fine, but sword immortals are better at physical attacks?

That's the impression Chen Ming gets for now.

but……

He glanced at the large crater Lucifer had dug, and it seemed that Lucifer's physical attack methods were not bad either, so he decided not to jump to conclusions.

Anyway, just give my wife a 666 and that's it.

Whizzing!

Two faint lights flew in from the horizon; it was Afu and Dongyi who had also arrived.

Dongyi looked at the messy banks of the river and asked—

"What...what's going on?"

Afu nervously reached out and touched Chen Ming from head to toe, his gray eyes examining him carefully before asking worriedly—

"What's wrong? Are you alright?"

"It's alright, don't worry."

Chen Ming grasped her delicate hand and gave her a reassuring smile.

Ah Fu exhaled, then her face flushed again, and she said—

"Great."

"Weren't you practicing martial arts? Why are you here?"

"Dongyi told me, and I rushed over immediately."

She touched his thick, calloused hands and said—

Nothing is more important than you.

"……Um."

Chen Ming looked at the girl in front of him and understood her feelings.

Dong Yi was much more easygoing, and said—

"Even the most wicked live on for a thousand years. Isn't this the kind of guy who just wants to live forever? Even the heavens can't get rid of him."

"..."

Looking at his swordswoman wife, Chen Ming figured she was probably itching for a fight again.

Dongyi glanced at him and then said—

"But you still need to be careful. When we get back, Ah Fu and I will make you a protective amulet."

Speaking of amulets, when the aftershocks approached Chen Ming and the others, the landlady's amulet did glow slightly, but it probably didn't respond because there was no threat.

Lucifer looked around; the damage was extremely severe. He said—

"It's quite troublesome to fix."

"What should I do?"

"A methane explosion in the sewer... What do you think of this excuse?"

"what?"

"I can probably fool them by simply rewriting the cognition."

Is it reliable?

"It's okay."

Lucifer said—

"Even if some capable organization discovers something is wrong, they won't make it public. We're just helping them cover it up for a while."

"Even if they find out there was a fight here, they won't disclose it to the public and cause social impact... They might even clean up our mess?"

Chen Ming nodded and continued—

"Okay, let's do it this way."

"Hmm, then this zombie..."

Lucifer pointed to the red-haired woman at his feet and said—

"We need to find a place to bury her."

"A living corpse, is it..."

Ah Fu said—

"This zombie seems to have some kind of spiritual energy; if we're going to bury it, we might as well bury it at home..."

"What?"

Chen Ming was dumbfounded. Had they mistaken his own home for a graveyard?

Afu scratched his head and said—

"A living corpse is a shell that has lost its soul; the body itself is not dead. This living corpse seems to be full of spiritual energy; burying it in the house can create a cultivation cave."

"..."

Chen Ming looked at the dirty, red-haired woman lying motionless on the ground. Actually, she was quite pretty, while she was still… cough cough, just kidding.

I wanted to plead for her, but when I thought about how she had almost caused a lot of harm before, I couldn't bring myself to say it.

Lucifer nodded and said—

"Using it as a tool is a good suggestion, but before that..."

She reached out and grabbed the small fish, saying—

"Hand over the items."

"Alas!"

Little Fish looked at Chen Ming with teary eyes.

Chen Ming narrowed his eyes and said—

"I've already said it before, did you steal something that caused someone to be chasing you? Confess honestly."

"Oh...it's nothing..."

The little fish rummaged inside its body with its tentacles, pulled out a yellow talisman, and obediently handed it to Lucifer, murmuring—

"Well, it's because I think this thing on her forehead is really pretty, so..."

"A talisman?"

Dong Yi opened his eyes wide and said—

"And it's of a high grade. You're really good at stealing."

"What, what do you mean by stealing? This is taking... I took it right in front of her..."

The little fish rubbed its tentacles.

Everyone stared at it with cold eyes, and it shrank its head.

Chen Ming sighed, looked at the red-haired woman, and said—

"So, we can't entirely blame them..."

"But there should still be a price to pay."

Lucifer interrupted him, handing the talisman to Afu and saying—

"You're more familiar with this."

"Ah."

Afu nodded. As a talisman sword immortal, she naturally had studied talismans, but she didn't use them often in her martial arts practice.

Holding the yellow talisman, he infused its patterns with renewed vitality, making it glow slightly.

She knelt down and helped the red-haired woman up...

"Um!?"

Afu's eyes widened suddenly as he stared at the red-haired woman's face, looking utterly incredulous.

Chen Ming saw that A Fu was frozen, tilted his head, and asked—

"what happened?"

"This, this is..."

Looking at the unconscious red-haired woman, Afu murmured—

"Lu Bu..."

Chapter 240 Spanking Chen Ming...maybe we shouldn't?

"Lü Bu?"

Dong Yi's eyes widened, and he quickly bent down to look at the face of the living corpse in A Fu's arms.

He had a rigid and serious demeanor, with an innate air of aloofness. He had long eyelashes and a familiar face, but his complexion was so pale it was almost bluish.

Dong Yi was somewhat shocked, and murmured—

"What, what's going on? Isn't Lü Bu at school?"

Afu frowned and said—

"Before I came out, Lü Bu was preparing to practice martial arts with the Emperor, but this living corpse..."

Something's not right.

Dong Yi reached out and examined the red-haired woman's eyes, then inspected her clothing and said—

"The soul of this body must have been lost a long time ago, and Lu Bu is only two years older than me."

"Lu Bu is so young?"
